I'm unexpectedly outside among the greenery, just sitting in a chair and it occurred to me that I don't know how to just *be* outside anymore. But then I remembered I was like this in my 20s, too, so whew.

I now only have $20 Uber cash that can only be used on UberEats that still won't show up when I check out. Good job, I'll be eating a wholesome meal I make at home and have still never ordered from UberEats.

Side by side comparison of two screenshots of my phone, one taken at 8:08, the other taken at 8:09. Left pic is on a checkout and under Payment, it says Uber Cash: $0.00. It gives the option to add a promo code. It says Subtotal: $33.90. Uber One Credits -$1.45. Delivery fee is a crossed out 49 cents replaced with a zero. Other fees line has a crossed out $7.80 replaced with $4.23. Taxes are $3.01. Total has a crossed out $45.20 replaced with $39.69. It says "Saving $5.51 with Uber One"

Right pic shows my Uber balances as $41.45. It lists Uber One credits as $1.45. It lists Promotion - Uber Eats Only as $40.00 and there is a note that says $20.00 expires tomorrow. Other otpions

Happy Chanukah

A hand replaced the shammus after lighting one candle for the first night of Chanukah on a brass menorah. Both candles have blue wax on the bottom and white wax on top and have light blue in between. The menorah is on tin foil on a sideboard.

Counterpoint: I get some variety, but some things are so niche as to seem preposterous.

I would like to suggest that if you throw sex toys on a basketball court, or any kind of playing field at all, you are certainly not a fan. At best, you may be considered a spectator. #WNBA #crypto

Screenshot of USA Today story on the WNBA subsection with a headline that reads "Fan accused of throwing sex toy on WNBA court faces multiple charges". In red, I've crossed out the word "fan" and written "spectator".

The story was written by Scooby Axson on August 4, 2025 and updated on August 7, 2025 at 4:26pm ET.

Returning to NYC from visiting family. Here is a picture of the part of my family I don't mind putting on social media.

The cats at their bowls, eating.
Black cat is eating from a white bowl that says MEOW. Ragdoll cat eating from a plain white bowl. Stepped cat eating from a sky blue bowl worth cartoon cats on it. They're are water bowls between the cat bowls. The cats are in a nondescript hallway with a grey carpet.

Here is a picture that is only so-so, but I keep seeing so many down hearted things here so I thought I would add a non-downhearted thing. Also, I am practicing alt text. Take a look and make any improvement suggestions. Trying to get better at it.

A bouquet of blue hydrangeas in a glass vase on a round crocheted doily on top of a wooden table. In the background there is a star case leading up and some more wooden furniture under the staircase. There are also plates under the wall that cannot be seen distinctly under the staircase as well.

Thanks, @alexwinter.com, for letting me know about #TeslaTakedown.

A sign. Text- Overthrow the Oligarchs. Underneath are the isolated faces of Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Donald Trump, and Elon Musk.

White hand holding up a sign. Text- Don't be a chicken in a coup.

Without downloading any new pics, what’s your energy going into 2025.

A basically stick figure with a blue medical mask, leaning up against a wall and holding a cab of Lysol. The eyebrows make the expression look slightly angry.

Otherwise, there is a package about the size of a small paperback book wrapped in metallic pink. A thin package in blue stripes tired with purple ribbons on each end. A cylinder and small package wrapped with blue, silver, and white snowflakes. A small box with hot pink and white alternating stripes, package with metallic blue and silver boxes within one another. Small lumpy package with beige paper with metallic red fluer de lis like design. Small packet with bright red wrapping with gold design. Small packet with muted purple and beige stripes.

Will I become more popular if I post a cat picture? It's not my cat, but a relation.

Okay, I reposted this almost 2 weeks ago, but I finally actually put it in my phone.

If I have nothing of substance to say, should I post anyway? Here is a picture.

A buffet table in a house. In the back are aluminum pans over sternos with food and in the front are aluminum pans without sternos. There is a white tablecloth. Most prominent is potato salad, pasta salad, and house salad.

If I came over to your place and pulled two random books out of your bookshelves, what are the odds that you'd be able to tell me which one you read first? Credit where it's due: This question was inspired by a tweet made by @nameshiv.bsky.social in 2023.

A green bookshelf with 15 novels on them. All books are from the Oxford World Classics series. From left to right: Conrad's Under Western Eyes, Arrian's Alexander the Great, Andersen's Fairy Tales, Barrie's Peter Pan and Other Plays, Bellamy's Looking Backward 2000-1887, Berkeley's Principles of Human Knowledge, Boemer's Empire Writing, Bronte's Wuthering Heights, Flaubert's Three Tales, Braddon's Lady Audley's Secret, Bronte's Agnes Grey, Browning's The Major Works, Braddon's Aurora Floyd, The Bronte's Tales of Glass Town, Angria, and Gondal, and Bronte's Selected Letters.
